A poll conducted in Germany by the Allensbach Institute revealed that TikTok users, especially younger ones, hold differing views on China, Russia, and the Ukraine war compared to traditional media consumers. For example, only 28.1% of TikTok users agreed that China is a dictatorship, far lower than the 57% of newspaper readers. Additionally, only 13.6% of TikTok users supported Western backing for Ukraine, compared to 40.2% of newspaper readers. Younger TikTok users were also less likely to view Russia's war in Ukraine as an illegal aggression. Concerns about misinformation on TikTok, especially from China and Russia, were raised, with experts warning that young people are more susceptible to such content. This comes amid debates over TikTok's influence and security risks in the West.
